Most desktops have a graphical startup editor
The probability of getting BOOG88 is the same as any other random series, but the chances of getting a random series that also has two extremist dogwhistles is very small
Thanks! I doubt I’ll get a response or find out anything that happens, but hopefully this asshole at least needs to replace their plates.
I’m sorry you had to find out this way
Sure, I’m not saying this is smoking gun proof beyond a shadow of a doubt, but at the same time, it would be one hell of a coincidence.
yep, they call it “being crypto” or “hiding their power level”
Apparently it is not the standard design for an Indiana plate, so it must be a custom. Plus, the chances of randomly getting BOOG88 have got to be pretty small.
how’s this look
How many Kias can possibly be sold on a Wednesday morning, in Indiana
Well his number is right there, someone can give him a call…
It says BOOG, as in boogaloo, as in Civil War 2: Electric Boogaloo
Linux has been dead simple for 15 years now
>This is what Israel is using white phosphorus for, but the article is biased and never mentions it
<After rights groups accused Israel of war crimes for its use of white phosphorus in its 2008-09 Gaza offensive, the Israeli military said it would stop using it as smokescreen munitions in built-up areas, with unspecified exceptions.
The US and many other countries use white phosphorus based smoke munitions too, and it is not a war crime
That is true, but using it as an incendiary weapon in civilian areas is.
If you don’t like Al Jazeera, here’s another source.
Sure, and there are some performance gains to be made from it I’m sure, but when my OS is doing that and my web browser is doing that and my browser based chat client and my browser based text editor are all doing that, it gets pretty sluggish.
This is why Linux is a godsend for older machines, even running the exact same applications (Firefox, Discord, and vscode) on the exact same hardware, it still feels more responsive on Linux because there is less overhead from the OS itself.
4GB is what Windows idles at for me, after everything has loaded.
You present a false dichotomy. Yes, things like uncompressed audio and HD video take up more storage space, but that does not negate that modern commercial software is very inefficient with how it uses resources. You could improve the efficiency of the system while keeping HD video, it is not a mutually exclusive choice.
For example, booting up Windows and doing nothing takes up 4gb of RAM, while doing the same with a lean Linux installation would take up a quarter of that, despite both operating systems having identical functionality (run web browser, open applications, edit documents, play games, etc).
The worth of a thing is determined by what people will pay for it.
No, that’s how price is determined, not worth.
I don’t think you’ll earnestly want to argue that 1 hour of movie entertainment is in general worth multiple hours of gaming entertainment
Depends on the movie and depends on the game. Some games with lots of content are good (if they’re well made), others are filled with trash content that is a waste of time to go through. Same with movies, there are some fantastic 75 minute cinematic experiences, and there are some that drag on for 3+ hours and do not successfully utilize their resources into a good movie. And vice versa.
but if you compare those of similar quality, the fact stands that the game will give you more for your money
If it’s a good game, sure, but we’re talking averages here and the average game is not good, so needing to play even more tedious uninspired levels doesn’t add any value, it in fact just makes it a bigger waste of time.
I gather that gaming doesn’t seem to really entertain you for the most part.
I actually love gaming, and I wish more consumers would have higher standards to not enable the terrible practices of the industry.
Fedora is great, if you don’t like the default UI (I am a GNOME hater btw) you can easily try out one of the Fedora Spins with a different desktop environment while keeping Fedora’s stability and features. I recommend Fedora KDE for faster machines and Fedora Cinnamon for older machines or people that want something that’s snappier.
